~Owl Themed Baby Shower~













I consider myself lucky to have found Gabriel and Ryan's blog. I was so thrilled to see these beautiful photographs taken by them on their soon to be arriving son Lincoln's baby shower. I hope you enjoy these as much as I did. The owl fans were made by the parents themselves. Decoration and sweets were all arranged by their friends. The owl sugar cookies are the cutest. Isn't it a great feeling to be blessed with friends who make everything so easy and pleasant for you?
Update: Find "How to Make Owl Stirrers" video here.

    Miss Owl, your blog is precious! I found it via FiFi Lapin's blog. I love owls. Strange, because I have bunnies, but in my world, they can all be friends!

    That is so sweet (esp. those cookies)! All those owl details must have taken a lot of time and effort.

    This makes me want to have a baby! I don't have a baby shower coming up, but I love those stir sticks!! I'm sure I could incorporate them into our next party.

    I need to have those owl stirrers too! We are hosting a baby shower with an owl theme this Oct. I can't wait! Each day as I browse, my inspiration grows. This is a mother/daughter shower, and I would love to have the stirrers for the girls to use in their punch. I may try to actually come up with a way to make them on my own...thanks for the beautiful photos...

    @ Meredith I believe the stirrers were made by the parents.

    @ Aimme Aren't those stirrers just adorable! I'll love to see the pictures of the baby shower.

    I planned an owl themed shower for my best friend earlier this summer and used these pictures as an inspiration! It was an absolute hit! For anyone that may be interested, I was able to make the owl skewers and I now sell them on etsy!
